Farming At Folsom

WARMUP: SSH, Windmills, Mountain Climbers, Plank Jacks, Hillbillys, Moroccan Nigh Clubs, and Overhead claps
THE THANG: This was another variation of my Farmers Workout:  Each PAX took a turn to run the the “course of chores” which included the Chain Drag, Farmers Carry, Block Loading, and Tire Hammering. While the man was in the course the remaining PAX were back home doing work that was drawn out of the hat, SOME of that work included: Squats, Merkins, LBC’s, Jungle Boy Squats, Shoulder Taps and there were others! Oh yeah I forgot to mention that we also had “The Rock” (no not Duane) but our friend who weighs somewhere above the 50 lb range, the deal was that once the work started the rock couldn’t touch the ground or a 5 burpee penalty would be incurred. The Rock must be shared by all PAX! Did it hit the ground…? YES 2 times that MAY have been intentional (thanks @Pony Boy and @Bed Pan) As always I saw some areas for improvement and look forward to bringing another version of this out soon!
MARY: none

Merkin Mania and Stay Fresh Meth Packets

The HIM came out to the Old School in search of a beatdown. What would happen? They showed and soon they know’d. No weinke was needed either. This is what happened…

Stretching warm up to get loose and some merkins thrown in. Mosey around the corner and stop for some more merkins. Mosey from there to the alma mater of many-o PAX for the Thang

Dora 123 – partner up and do 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs and 300 Side Straddle Hops. The other partner would take a lap around the bus drive in. Perfect form was done by all. On one of the laps Gumby noticed a pile of what looked like a spilled can of snuff or maybe meth packets.

Next we did Wall sits for a bit and then a bear crawl under the covered drop off. A mini slalom was done and then back with what we did before.

Mosey from there to the wide truck drive behind the Ingles for some 11s. Big boys on one end and merkins on the other. There was quite a bit of corner cutting by the usual suspects who struggle with counting reps. #HTSI

Fellowship mosey to the small cul-de-sac for some more stretching.

Mosey the long way back to the start and the about 12 minutes of Mary with explicit instructions to limit the work to abs and a 10-rep max. Some tried to test the Q’s resolve but those attempts were squashed!

Time! Thanks for the opportunity to pick up the vacant Q. Aye!

Announcements – Tuna 200 needs runners (congrats to Chili for the HC), July 4th at Yank, Lightning workout

We moseyed the long way to the bunker where we counted off to 10. Set up 11’s with one side LBC’s other side Mike Tyson’s. Everyone got to choose how they wanted to travel between each set. Wall sit for the 6.

 

Next was Dora

Pick a partner and do 100 CDD, 200 calf raises, 300 flutter kicks. While one partner was doing the exercise the other ran up the bunker stairs and down the hill back to starting point. Wall sit for the 6.

Final set… 4 corners

SSH, CDD, low slow squats, heals to heaven. Started out with 5 reps of each in each corner. Make way around and increase 5 until all the  you reach 30 reps at each corner.  Fellowship mosey back to yank for 3 minute marry.

Sprinters, Ruckers, and My Team Won at Football Suckers

I noticed 6/17 spot at Lifeline needed a Q so I sent a DM to Hot Corner and he said it’s yours. So I planned a short warmup and an even shorter workout that would have the legs ready for what I really wanted to do which was play a little UF Rules Football. Warmup was full of SSHs, Merkins, and lots of mobility work. Whoopee and his band of misfits exited stage left at this point to get in a good ruck while the rest of us got in a quick workout. The workout consisted of lunges, bear-crawls, high knees, but kickers, jogs, and sprints. Now that the legs are juiced and ready to get after it we’re all ready for some football. Mayor complained about team selection process but ever since he’s been on IR he’s been quite the whiney b!+ch anyway. After a few scores between teams the ruckers showed back up and I let Mayors team choose 2 players since they were down a man in the first session. My team picked up Tiger while the lesser squad picked up Whoopie and Roscoe. This seemed to appease any discrepancies in team selection previously mentioned. We still got in a little work while playing. You see the rules were if your team scored then your team does 10 squats. On the other side of the ball if your team is scored on your team does 10 burpees. Team Uno (my squad) did like 60 squats to only 30 burpees. That ratio alone tells you everything you need to know about team Dos and how good Mayor McBrickhands and Slickdigits Stagecoach’s team faired in the game. As a matter of fact if not Mr. Whoop Ass Whoopee himself showing back up the game wouldn’t have been that close. He would be my MVP vote for today if we were doing such a thing. Nothing like getting the game ball for the Altlanta Falcons Superbowl Squad right Whoopee. All jokes aside we all won today because we got in good workout and had some fun while doing so.

Announcements: Street Cleanup this Sat. Rice and Beans tomorrow, Lunch at Bubba’s 33 on Wed. Blood Drive the 26th.

Praise – Prayers: There was an In-law Relocation mentioned, My mom, Turtleman’s Family, Hall Family, Multiple families of recent Drowning incidents, Gumby’s Mom, Westside’s Father in Law, Each Other

DONE
